Clio 197 wheel alignment advice!

[edar]

Hi chaps.

I've owned a 2008 197 for a few months now and I need some sensible advice. It veers really badly towards the curb on all road types and won't track in a straight line even on the motorway. I've had the wheel alignment checked on a Hunter machine and the right front camber is way out, the rest is all ok. I can't find any specialist including K-tech racing to find the cause. Plus the advice from the relevant forums on Facebook is to say the least, unhelpful. Has anyone experienced this with their 197 and if so what caused the issue / and fixed the problem?

I've owned many cars over the years and never had this issue before. Very baffled...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you checked for wheel wobble like shot track rods?

Mine was pulling to the left... track rod kept coming loose... turned out the insert in the hub that provides the taper for the track rod end was missing!

Stab in the dark. Is your suspension strut fked?

Thanks for the advice chaps. I'll get those areas checked

Difficult to tell from your post but have you actually had the alignment reset and has it improved? Cause could be as simple as a bump into a curb or a pothole knocking it out.

Had this issue with mine having camber issues on the drivers front, got told not to pursue it for the amount it was (out of factory tolerance but nothing radical) fitted coil overs and when i returned to get its re tracked the problem had been resolved suggesting i had a bent strut. sounds like yours is worse than mine was though so could be a number of things best off getting it on a ramp and checking the various bushes
